240 PointsI keep on rechecking my code and the program keeps on telling me that I need to add an image tag but I thought I did?
Here is the code I typed out:
<li> <a href="img/numbers-01.jpg"> <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt=""> </a> </li>
Isn't <img src=...... the image tag? I think I am doing it correctly and the images display but I cant figure out why the program says its wrong

643 PointsThe instructions specify not to add any links (a hrefs). One of yours (img 6) has a comma in it instead of a period. In any case, the instructions say not to, so take out the <a> tags and I think you'll be just fine!
